I believe it's 200 feet tall.

40/9.6 = x/48
Use laws of proportions to solve for x

Please help me right away. There are 2 problems.

For #6;

We know that there are 46% male students and 30% of them are seniors. This means that we have to assume that 30% of the male students are seniors and that 30% of the female students are seniors. Taking 30% of 46% gives us 13.8%.

For #7;

We are looking for the possibility that we choose a junior student (22%) or a sophomore student (28%). This adds up to 50% (22%+28% = 50%). That is out answer.

A diver descends to a location of -50 1 over 4 meters relative to the surface of the water. He then descends another 10 1 over 2

Yanka [14]

Answer:

$-60\frac{3}{4}$ meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find diver's final location relative to the surface of water we will subtract $10\frac{1}{2}$ from $-50\frac{1}{4}$ because diver dives away another $10\frac{1}{2}$ from his previous location of $-50\frac{1}{4}$ .

$-50\frac{1}{4} -10\frac{1}{2}$

Now we will convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction and then we will find a common denominator.

$\frac{-201}{4} -\frac{21}{2} =\frac{-201-42}{4}$

$=\frac{-243}{4}$

Now let us convert our answer in mixed fraction.

$=\frac{-243}{4}=[tex]-60\frac{3}{4}$ [/tex]

Therefore, diver's final location relative to the surface of the water is $-60\frac{3}{4}$ meters.
